'HANDSOME AND USEFUL Owing to the failure ofa firm that had taken a contract. for supplying most of our business men calendars have bet-ti scarce in the village this Season. Mr. I’. G. Savage, however, has ghen to his friends and patrons s rme very handsome ofi‘iue calendars. Those he has given out are front the, Confederation Life, York Mutual, \\'cstt-rn, and Mercantile Assurance Companies. i Every enterprising business man should advertise in the local paper. Merchants and others who advertise juditiously are. the men who make their business a success. It is scarcely possible to edit a good local paper and make it pay unless it is generously supported by the. citiZens of a town or village. and surrounding neighbor- hoods. Those who advertise what they have to sell, and make the treCPS» sary changes front time to time, are almost. snre to say in the end that ad- vertising pays. S. 0.
